The miners boys and girls have no
childhood. Hundreds of children from
s to 10 years of age are at work in the
hard coal mines slate picking and in the
soft coal mines coke-trimming and mule
driving. Hard, drudging toll is the lot
OF these little ones all day long in the
dust and CRIME of the picking shed, win
ter and summer. What wonder that the
majority of graves in the miners ceme-
terry are short ones? A stunted, de-
frauded childhood, sickly and infrm
youth, and manhood old and decrepit
before its time this is not an uncommon
experience among these coal workers. 1t
is true there is a law forbidding the en-
ployment of young children in the
collieries on the statute book, but the
evidence is convincing that it is very
rarely enforced, the poverty of the par
ents and the Indifference OF the en-
ployers stand in the way. AS late as
1883 there was no compulsory school law
in Pennsylvania, and if there be now it
is, like the law referred to above, almost
never enforced in the coal regions. When
work is slack the miner sends his boys to
school, where they get all the education
they ever have. At other times they, as
we'll as their father, must work.-Work
and Wages.

"SoTTo VoCE," a funny idiot who occu-
pies space in the Salt Lake Herald, has
got Andy Brixen into nice scrape, that
interesting scene in New York theatre
OF which Mr.. Brixen was an alleged spec
tator, being gray.whskered chestnut,
published several months ago. OF course
Andy was never guilty of telling the
story. He is simply the victim OF the
villain who perpetrates such damnable
outrages upon an unsuspecting COM
munity, and suffering under such an
atfiiction, the generous public will SYM
pathize with him as deeply and sincerely
as does the DEMOCRAT.

THE SOUTHERN NEGRO.

Much to the chagrin OF Republicans,
Matthews, the Democratic colored official,
is making good record for efficiency and
intelligence. They have vivisected his
record and yet cannot place their fingers
on single act that gives foundation for
fault.finding. The Democratic negro is
a thorn in the Republican side. Suppose
the Southern negro should come to under
stand that the Republican party is not
his sole political dependence; that the
Northern Democrat does not wear horns
and tail, and that his freedom is as safe
in Democratic as in Republican hands,
what would be the consequence? Then
suppose the Southern negro should re-
member that it was the Democratic party
who helped him to his rights in the Freed
mans Bank swindle, and helped get back
for him his stolen funds? What then
1t would be a disastrous blow to the
party of corruption in 1888, and would
retain the Democratic party in the as
tendency for generation at least. With
the Southern negro withdrawn from its
assets the Republican party would have
to 60 into voluntary bankruptcy. The
negro is becoming educated up to indie
pendence. He sees, hears and reasons
for himself. He is more and more in
clined to vote as his conscience dictates.
The old slogan of Democratic oppression
will no longer swing him into line, and
the day appears far distant when the
colored man will divide, as his white
brother does.

BINGHAM.

Is it not high time for newspapers
to stop their insinuations and charges
that the mother and relatives of
Bingham are conspiring to keep
Walter Bingham out OF the hands OF
Justice? A terrible aud most afro
cious crime was committed, and the
criminal should be arrested and dealt
with accorling.to law. Law is nn-
Welding, torclble and uncompronis
ing There ia seldom any escape
from il. 1t silently and noiselessly
works its way, and in the end does
it, work. No power, no wealth, no
influence, can successfully evade ii,
or soften IT'S final clutch.
Under the shadow OF this truth, is
it not heartless TO swell the anguish
Of a heart broken mother? Wac
can ta,hom the extent OF the grief Of
q noble woman, who in her solitude
la,nen,s the destruction of her world
" happiness? Who, but a mother
can imagine the feelings OF Mrs
Bingham? Why follow her in be-
despair with taunts and charge
which all sensible people must re
pudia,e :? Her weight OF woe i
great enough, and none a tathon
it.
The parents and relatives of tn
unfortunate girl have the sympath.
of all people. Their, loss is grea'
their grief unsurpassed.
The ~uncalled for attacks on D.
Worth, for what is supposed to b
his obstruction to efforts TO detee
the criminal, are unworthy of an
tair. minded people. He needs u
